Abstract The world is changing and becoming increasingly multipolar due to the emergence of China, India, Russia, Brazil and
South Africa forming so called BRICS. The global influence of
America is fading out due to the recent decline in their stock market and the emergence of other markets. The framework of the global economy has changed dramatically due to the collapse of Lehman
Brothers in 2008. The change in swift happened from G7 to G20
(group of world’s largest 20 economies) and this G20 comprises of these five nations from BRICS. Unlike 2009 the world economy is expected to have a positive growth in future, considered high economic growth by China and India than US. The world sees
BRICS as the emerging economies and many enterprises has started moving out to these countries as they look promising. With China emerging as a superpower followed by India, BRICS has turned into major player in the global economy, that is expected by the world economists to shape the 21st century.
This paper aims to study the trends, similarities and patterns in the activities and movements of the BRICS economy to its other counterparts, as this could help the investors to learn about the financial happenings in these five nations. The details are collected through available secondary data’s and also by conducting economic research. The analysis is done using various statistical methods.
This paper focuses to help the investors in knowing the development of various markets among the BRICS nations and invest accordingly.
As each market is inter dependent on each other, this study aims to learn how the economic development in BRICS nations led to major financial changes in other developing nations.

    A Report on Brazil

    • 4490 Words
    • 18 Pages

    Being the fifth largest country in the world by surface area and population, and recently emerging as one of the fastest growing global economies , Brazil can hardly be overlooked as a potential target of investment, especially in the light of the 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Olympics. Nevertheless, an immediate word of caution is at place here. Even though Brazil is 25% of the highly hyped BRIC-countries, the engine seems to show some hiccups, as it is revealed that due to high interest rates and an overly appreciated national currency, the Brazilian economy in 2011 had its second-worst performance since 2003 (2.7% growth versus 7.5% in 2010) . As a result, Brazil is losing international competitiveness and is being outperformed by its fellow BRIC-nations . This is also noted in a recent report from Nasdaq, in which it is claimed that a central bank survey showed forecasts of a growing inflation and declining economic growth .…

    As I have seen in the movie, there is a greater risk in the global capital market. And in today’s economy is financing and financial integrated, the most controversial issue in international economics is the financial globalization. Trade liberalization is beneficial thus elimination of barriers to international trade in goods and services. In financial markets it includes the capital flows of different countries like Indonesia, Malaysia, South Korea, Brazil and Russia. The two main benefits of the Financial Globalization is first, the inter-temporal trade which tells about smoothing spending of time or also called as the “consumption Smoothing”. Second, is the risk diversification and like for example to understand this concept is that a man during his looking life, a person may reduce his current income and save it in order to maintain a high level of consumption during his retirement. Next example for this is that a student will learn so that he may seem comfortably today and pay back his loan by forgoing future consumption when his income is high. Poor countries like Bangladesh or Nigeria can increase their domestic income if it is high. Rich countries on the other hand can lend fund in global capital market so they can maintain a high level of consumption they enjoy now and into the future. Another concept is about the investment and growth and it brings high future income. Another term I’ve seen in the movie is about the diminishing returns to capital, this is the natural occurrence in the economy. It shows that there are lot of labourers who work in the factory and it should have more machines because it helps more productive in the workers. It shows also the percentage of United Kingdom net outflow of capital in 1880 there is 5% of total income and in 1913 it grows 10%, and as a result Argentina is now the richest country in 1870 that the per capita income is 40% and it grows one-fourth of its which is 75% in 1913. The year during 1870-1913 refer to the…

According to Human Development Report 1996, “during 1960–1992 not a single country succeeded in moving from lopsided development with slow human development and rapid growth to a virtuous circle in which human development and growth can become mutually reinforcing.” Since slower human development has invariably been followed by slower economic growth, this growth Sustainable development is a term widely used by politicians all over the world even though the notion is still rather new and lacks a uniform interpretation.…
